The ad was paid for by the Barbers Hill Education Foundation, which has contact information on their website. I sure hope nobody decides to tell them how they feel about this.

I feel that hiring cops that actually defend kids when being fired upon is a conformity rather than a hairstyle. What if his grew only in that pattern. Get your shit together Texas. Your are quickly approaching Alabama or Florida style of embarrassment.

Aw come on, leave Florida out of it! At least our national embarrassment voluntarily stepped down from his presidential campaign, that's got to count for something, right?
